Color me not surprised.
Good G-d how much more proof do we need of treason at the highest levels.
Bush/Cheney’s fault!
Oh wait....
Who cares? Not I. Military briefings are routinely edited to confirm with political positions. Just as long as the politicians get the real scoop at some point to adjust their positions is all that counts.
ISIS ebbs and flows with recruits, training and support. Their effectiveness fluctuates week by week it seems. All I can say is I saw them receiving 4 - 12 bombings a day during my time in Baghdad. I’m talking about stuff like a 500 lb. Paveway followed by a 500 lb. snake JDAM landing between 3 guys shooting the S in the middle of a road outside Al Asad at 11pm. When stuff like that is being brought down I don’t really worry about politics or big pictures cuz the daily small pictures tell the real story.
Much ado about -politics. There ain’t no ‘there’ here.
Why isn’t this treason?
Our generals and admirals.....
“Maybe you shoulda made ‘em smarter instead of faster.” - Gary Busey in the movie SOLDIER.
For people who are just ramping up on these issues, a former FBI agent alleges that the current Director of the CIA, John Brennan, converted to Islam while in Saudi Arabia. While this is contested, he has consistently downplayed Islam as a driving force of terror and conquest, and there is a YouTube video of him lecturing on the beauty of Islam...
...in Arabic.
50 Spies Say ISIS Intelligence Was Cooked (by Obama Admin)
I wouldn’t doubt it.
The enemies within....
C’mon it’s attrition. We’ve taken out something like 6,000 of ‘em with probably another 30,000 to go considering their recruitment rates. Happy times. Best possible situation EVER!
The saps get lured into the TOW Arena and get blasted from all sides. Others are hit by Kurdish, Iraqi and Syrian forces. Most of their experienced fighters are dead. Once their trainers are killed their efficacy will plummet. With low oil prices and Turkey now erstwhile supporting the coalition that day has arrived.
The radicals from all over are getting cooked off in a free fire zone.
Ever figure just WHY ISIS puts so much effort on recruitment? Cuz they have to, they’re being heavily attritted -constantly. EVERYONE hates them ‘cept for the fools who’ve never dealt with them. They’re scumbags. Worst of the worst. Can’t buy a friend except in Turkey -who is now regretting it.
John Bachelor was reporting on this a week or two ago, it was pretty good. I’ll try and find a link to the show it was on but I’m not the best at finding stuff.
One more reason citizens are disgusted with Washington...
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Bump
WTH?
First reaction: What’s going on, really, if The Daily Beast is investigating and reporting this story??? It reminds me of actual journalism 1) and 2) it portrays the administration in an unfavorable way. Isn’t that strange??
The implications of this are really so ugly and frightening. January 2017 ...can we make it til then..

This seems to go further than just routine slanted briefings.
